Abstract: The report is based on a lecture held at an IAEA training course on trace element analysis and on the introductions given for some practical exercises in our laboratoryduring this course. In its first part (Chapters 1 to 4 ) from a statistical review on the applications of the different methods of activation analysis the practical importance of neutron activation analysis (NAA) and expecially of reactor NAA is made obvious. The techniques - irradiation facilities and $\gamma$-spectrometry - are basically described. In the second part (Chapters 5 and 6) the different standardization techniques - absolute method, relative method and single monitor including the k$_{o}$-method - are presented. The procedure used in the Radloanalytical Section of the ZCHIKFA, which is based on the k$_{o}$ method - is thoroughly treated. In this section a Table of all nuclear parameters which are required for the calculation of amounts of elements is included. Sources of error are treated including those of the nuclear data. The propagation of the different types of error to the analytical results is discussed in detail.
